<p>[QUOTE=&quot;richardthebrave, post: 1116574, member: 20511&quot;]AGE are mislabeled as 22 carats (0.917 fine) because of the wrong way the contents of the coin was explained.</p><p><br /></p><p>the entire gold contents of AGE itself is 99.99% at 31.1 grams, except that they used more hardening materials compared to the maples (AGE has silver and copper)</p><p><br /></p><p>taking now both the amount of gold and hardening materials combined you get 0.917 or 22 carats since you also included the copper contents with it: the result is an excess total weight of 33.930 grams or 1.0909 ounces making it heavier against other gold bullions. this is where the misnomer came from <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>but taking only the gold amount, it is already at 31.1 grams of 99.99% gold. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>p.s. if you would look at the smaller denomination of AGE, they have also the same properties (excess weight because of the silver and copper contents) but they are also 99.99% pure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
